Synopsis

Gold Nautilus Award — Middle Grade Fiction

Twelve-year-old Katie is sitting in class, ignoring her teacher, when the oak tree outside the window asks her to listen. She does—and that small act of attention is about to change everything.

When an earthquake splits the ground beneath her feet, Katie falls into another world. There she meets Za, a sharp-tongued, purple-skinned alien who is just as lost as she is. Together they set out on a quest to find the Winged Ones—the only beings who can get them both home. Along the way, they encounter a shape-shifting tree spirit, a playful water god, elemental dragons, and nature beings whose wisdom is older than anything Katie learned in school. And shadowing every step: the Poison One, a force that turns everything it touches to ruin.

Wind is a richly imagined fantasy rooted in the deep connections between all living things—between people and nature, between strangers who become allies, between the world as it is and the world as it could be.
